about

This is track 7 on my album written and recorded during the month of February 2021 as part of the annual February Album Writing Month challenge, asking participants to write 14 songs in 28 days. Rules can be found at fawm.org/help/.

The album A Million Boxes is inspired by personal life events and plays in chronological order. All of these tracks were recorded in one take using my phone and the DolbyOn app. Most songs were written in under an hour.

lyrics

I knew that you were coming by the mood of the day and the dream I had the night before

I’m told that I was made for this, connected to something, but I’m shaking and I’m not so sure

You were lying, looking, not a care in the world and I sweated through my favorite shirt

Everything was quiet, sun was shining, I felt you, yeah, this is what they mean by hurt

Love and light
Take me away from here
It’s you and I
And the world’s gonna disappear

Minutes turn to hours when the clock is unwound, but I’d stay here for the rest of my days

Yeah, I’ll go through a Hell and a ring of fire just to have a look at your sweet face

Love and light
Take me away from here
It’s you and I
And the world’s gonna disappear
